as an oldest child engaged to an oldest child, we want our daughter to be the youngest so this doesn’t fall upon her bc my fiancé’s sister is my age and also ended up babysitting their youngest siblings a lot

but then again my brother who is only 11 months older than me terrorized our younger siblings and treated them like prisoners when he babysat so my mom started to have him watch them less and less which kinda screwed me over 😕
